Born to be women: The Masks

PART I — THE MASKS

Four women. Four very different lives. And behind each of them, a mask.

Katalin is struggling to hold together a marriage built on secrets and disappointment. Anna is a successful lawyer who seems to have everything under control, even as her own marriage begins to fracture. Dóra faces a growing threat at work and must decide how long she is willing to remain silent. Vera carries wounds from a past she has never truly left behind.

They do not yet know how deeply their lives will become intertwined.

Each woman has learned, in her own way, to survive: by adapting, enduring, pretending, or simply carrying on. But there comes a moment when survival is no longer enough.

The Masks is the first volume of Born to Be Women, an emotional contemporary women’s fiction trilogy about friendship, relationships, hidden wounds, courage, and the masks women wear until they are finally ready to take them off.
